I returned these. Way too high of a heel, have a hard time sensing my ankle positioning.

I wanted to love this shoe. The color and quality were nice but the "stability" component did not work for me. I have been having tendonitis on the inside of my foot when running due to increased pronation of my foot and was hoping these shoes would help. My foot would be sore the day after running in these shoes unfortunately making the problem worse. Not good as a running stability shoe in my opinion but good cushion for standing.

Very comfortable shoe. Sizing runs a little small so I went up a half size, but now are a bit bigger than I would like. But overall I love the shoes.

I am 68 years young and just started running again. I've worn Brooks for several years, particularly the Glycerin, after suffering from plantar fasciitis. My favorite thing about these shoes is the fact I can wear them right out of the box. No break-in period necessary. I keep my older pair of Brooks to wear while working in the yard. My ankles, knees and hips thank you!

This is a great shoe, but it runs small. If you are on the border of sizes, size up. I had to return them, but I will re-order in a bigger size.

These shoes are amazing. As someone with frequent heel pain and the occasional plantar fasciitis flare up, I needed a supportive shoe with enough cushion while I walked over 25,000 steps a day on vacation. I never had any issues or any foot pain and wore them everyday for 9 days. They are supportive and have a good amount of cushion and arch support. I tend to walk on the outside of my foot, but the design of these shoes prevented that. I plan on purchasing a second pair and would recommend these to anyone.

Very cushioned and good support. Slightly rubbed inside of both heels on first long run in them.

I purchased the GTS 21 on recommendation from a friend who is on her feet a lot for work. I purchased them because I thought the thick cushion would be helpful in minimizing stress while on my feet. Ive had the Brooks shoes shoes for a few months and never recognized how sore my feet felt after a day at work while wearing them, And truth be told I didnt figure it out until this past weekend-
The shoes by all account have a thick sole and appear to give needed cushion to those who are on their feet a lot or who simply walk a lot. But I wore the Brooks GTS 21 shoes on Sunday and was on my feet off an on the entire day as we had company over and we were building a gazebo. By evening my feet were in so much pain that I couldnt wait to take them off .
Today I wore my ASICS shoes to work instead and had them on the entire day into the late evening. I came home and did not have any foot pain.
Kind of a shocking revelation as I think back over the past month wearing my Brooks shoes- Ive had knee pain and sore feet multiple times and never put the occurrences together.
Sadly these shoes are not for me.
:-(

Now that Im wearing the correct size for my feet problems the Glycerin 21 GTS is working well for me. I will be happiest when Ive broken these in - they feel a little stiff and more firm than my last Glycerin 20 GTS. The style features never fail! Suggestion: please make more color choices in the WIDE sizes of Glycerin GTS. Thanks Brooks!

These shoes had a wonderful, squishy softness that felt so good underfoot, but just didn't have enough support for my over pronating, old, worn out feet. Unfortunately, I had to return this item, but eventually found the right Brooks shoe for me. If your foot holds a neutral position and you're seeking a soft, plush feel underfoot, I highly recommend this model.

They are alright. I probably should have ordered the next size up.
They feel a little tight.

I chose this shoe because it not only has the support that I originally found in the Brooks Adrenaline GTS 23, but it has the extra cushion to make my shoes comfy and more enjoyable while running.

Very comfortable, I love the cushion and how it lands when I workout. I struggle with shin splints so I wanted a shoe with extra support. I am very happy with this product.

I will be buying another pair. They are the best. I am not a runner. 66 years old walker getting ready for knee replacement and they are perfect.

The toe box from Glycerin 20 to 21 has shrunk. Not working for me. I have high arches. 20 was amazing. 21 is disappointing.
